Application .filed June 18, 3.921.` Serial No. @6,9103
To all-whom. t may concern:
Be itiknown that l, VILLIAM C. Soeren, -a citizen of thefUnited States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and l,State of"` California, have invented a new and useful Gas Generator, of which` the following is'a specification. n' My invention relates to devices for producing combustible mixtures of air and fuel from liqluid hydrocarbons, such as petroleum or etroreum distillates. i .n Object'of my invention to produce. a combustible mixture by heating meciiani cally .actuated column of air and injecting thereintheliquid fuel or oil.
yA further object Aof the invention is to provide .Ian apparatus ,in which such a combustible mixture may be 'generated Without the deposition of. carbon or terry matter in the apparatus. Y With such objects inview, as well. as other advantages ,whichinay be incident to Athe use of the improvements, the invention consiste in the procedure, and in the partsand combinations thereof hereinafter set. forth andclairned, with the understanding that theseveral necessary elements constituting thesarne' may. be varied in proportions and arrangements without departing` from the nature of the invention.
flfn'order to make. the invention more clearunderstood there are shown. in tac accompanying drawings means forvcarrying the same `into practical effect, without limiting the virriprovements in their useful applications, tothe particular constructions which,
for `thepurpose of explanation, have been made the subject of illustration.
Further objects and advantages will be made evident'hereinafter.
Referring to-tlie drawing which is for illustrative purposesonly;
'Figipl is a plan view of an arrangement of apparatus embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a side elevationof the burner shown in Fig'. l with the lower portion thereof in section on a plane represented by the line 2--2 of Fig.r l.

taken vsubstantielly upon a plane represent.-

Fig. 4 is a 'horiZontalfsectioual view to illustrate the interior construction of the heat .tion22 of which makes ing chamber i empio resented by the line ig. 5 is au elem. corporated in a burner hay" of application.
A hollow ring 'li providing circular chamber l2 and having at a suitable point therein web or wall 3 3 is provided with threaded inlet. 1.1i and a threaded outlet l5. Upwardly projectin rom theinlet le is a short nipple if( el o Juntsan elbow 1.8 into which,l is threaded an air delivery pipe 19 leading from a biower QU or other suitableksource of air supply. Within the air pipe 19 is an oii nozzle 2l, a projecting porconnection witli an i i iiich is situ from toe outlet l5 of the hoiiow rien ipple mounting a branch lit" 'ingr opposing` outlets 2T and 28 and an inlet arm ii() aillipted yfor connection with. a i ipe extending parallel to the nipples l5 and le hicli are screwed into the outicts 2S and respec tively. Upon the lower end of he nipple is a burner cap ai() having; lateralfy extended orifices lil, and upon 'the apn end. of the nipple 3G iocaiod an elbow from which leads a delivery pi ie The generator rests in a firing; pan and shown in the application which have' ch for illustrating.: the embodiment of .L invention, that of gen n ,ers fm'notc consump-r tion or .ile storage through the dei A W'Tlien starting .Y tor a small quantity of oil is allowed to flow' into the pan 45 and ignit "i, the i therefrom serving to i i ll andthe rcniainingr parte or the generator si d above the pan 45. i

Entering' fthe chamber .2, the air and oil assume Jthe course indicated oy the arrows in 'Figa and during their passage therethrough are raised n ten'iperature'due to Y 'lie motor iii), drin ng the blower. 2l), 1s then started to cause a iow of air into` V but also a fuel and e t* f the heated condition of the ring l1. Rising through the heated nipple the vaporized oil and its thenv intermixedpropelling air stream pass the iitting 26, a portion thereo passing upwardly through the nipple 3G and the elbow 4,2 is carried to its point of consumption through the delivery pipe 43. The remaining portion of the mixture passes through the column `formed'by thenipple 35 and mes out through the orices 4l pro vide in the burner cap 40. The burner cap 4() is situated slightly beneath the ringll as illustrated in Fig. 2 and delivers a spreading llame against the underside of the ring ll'toA furnish the necessary heat for vaporiaing the fuel after'thelburner 1s onoeput into operation. TheA orifices 4l are made of a l size capable oi delivering a flame sufliciently large tofurnish the required amount of heat for the vaporization of the particular-loll used.
My device may yreadily transformed into a self generatingoil burner, as shown in lFig. 5, by mounting a burner head .55 upon the nipple 36, this;burner head being provided with lateral openings 56 to .throw a spreading flame.` Air ports 57 are pro- `vided' inthe dished Hiange 58 to furnish additional air tosupport combuston. In this adaptation, as in the previously .described embodiment of n invention, a portion of the gas generated 1n the ring) ll is consumed by the burner While the 'eater part of thegas is consumed at the urner and the heat thereof is applied directly to its point of utility.
The improved generating burner forming the subject matter of this applicationis particularly adapted to the conversion otthe heavier oils to a combustible gas. This conversion 4being accomplished without the usual deposition of carbonaceous materials ordinarily attending the breaking down of these heavier oils. I attribute this valuable result very largely to the use'o large pas- Sageways that are not restricted in any manner by filters and mixing devices.. The comparatively large volume of gas always i u contact with the walls of the burner members and the various pipes, seems to contain sufficient heat to practically preventcondeu-- sation with Ithe resultant deposition of the heavier residues of the oily 011 account of the comparatively large pipe areas the burner of `this invention is also particularly adapted to handle other types of fuels, such as coal in powdered'forni which could; be injected into'the chamber 11 with the air enterm therein. Therchamber 1l constitutesnot on y a Vaporizing chamber, air mixing and heating chamber, the `fuel being mixed by reasbn of the rapid circulation of the air through the said chamber while', the fuel is introduced therein.
